Blizzard is nothing more than a middle man between token seller and buyer who makes $5 each time they help with a transaction, and like middle men they will do what they can to make more transactions happen.
It is not true supply and demand that controls its pricing, Blizz has controls in place that dictates how much it goes up or down based on sales and they can tweak those settings to influence sales like increasing the % modifier in price increase and lower the % modifier on price decrease.
Blizzard disabled WOw token s on US for some reason. Cant buy them

Hey all,
I've just learned that we've disabled WoW Tokens for the time being - this is intentional, and not a bug, but is being looked into.
I don't have details to share on the 'why' or the 'when will they be back' questions you inevitably have, but I'll update you as I can.
Thanks for your patience!

well RIP, hope its a temporary thingOriginally Posted by Blizzard Entertainment
think the gold prices were going up WAAAY to high. let em sort this out.
Quite funny on the day that Overwatch special Origins Edition goes on sale for the first time since we been allowed to added WoW tokens too our bnet account balance they all of sudden goes crazy and they shut down be able to buy them or sell them....
Not a true supply and demand as Blizz stepped in. :P
I would hazard a guess that Blizzard agrees the gold price has gotten out of hand, the spikes from the Destiny 2 announcement and the Overwatch sale being the final proof.Originally Posted by Blizzard Entertainment
Hopefully they'll come up with a new algorithm for it.

Seems I was wrong. Tokens are back online, 240k for EU, and 148k for US.
You posed? Or you posted?
Either way, farming is still the worst method, so if you want to inform them, give them good information instead? You definitely have no reason to be as arrogant as you are, you don't seem to know what you are talking about. But keep farming herbs, while I buy them from you and craft something with it that I can sell for profit. You do all the actual work for me. I need you.
Fantastic they hotfixed the price to go even higher!
Playing OW at the same time so just wrote something fast and spelled wrong.
Well i can tell them to sort out TSM,learn their market and then start farming AH but that's what 95% of everyone says is "impossible" cuz' they don't put in the effort needed to master it.
I'm not here to be some kind of gold making guru,i just said that it's possible. And also,you just help me prove my point by saying farming is the worst way to earn gold but yet you can earn more than enough within 2 days to pay a token.
I don't know why you're trying to be some kind of White Knight here or what your point of arguing with me are. But thanks for proving my point.
You must gain control over your gold or the lack of it will forever control you.
See what ?
There is no "proof" there.
You assume that it not going below some number you pluck out of your backside means whatever you want it to mean.
Does not mean it is true.
The numbers just as much support the described Supply and Demand model that blizzard describe.
If you want to accuse blizzard of lying, then you need more than circumstantial observations which just as much support that you are claiming to be wrong.
You need ACTUAL proof that it is being manipulated in the way you describe.
